«A brilliantly narrated and documented descent into the prehistory of the imagination; an archaeology of mediation that loops Lascaux into space travel; a sensory riposte to a cultural studies industry that has forgotten its origins in brute material and buried the kinaesthetic subject out of sight of nature. Salazar Sutil’s ‘paleocyber way of life’ is a powerfully argued call to reject our era’s prevailing narcissism, and, reconnecting to humanity’s childhood, to start growing up.»

«This is a highly innovative and original project, much welcomed in the field of 'media-materialism'. Salazar Sutil's coverage of the subject is more than adequate and completely to the point.»
Bernd Herzogenrath, Professor of American Studies, University of Frankfurt, Germany.
